To tell you the truth, and this isn't me being funny or anything, but I don't really like to use forums as a medium any more for gaining sympathy or seeking advice.

I went to another forum about autism not too long ago. Obviously, I won't name it or leave a link, but I gave an honest account of what happened with my support workers (the ones who betrayed me years ago) and I referred to some of them as being 'paid lackeys' because of how they hadn't been helping me and others like me to their fullest potential, or companies just hiring the sort of generic, unqualified people who are unfit to be care aides, and I noticed they were content to mess around and not take things seriously (fidgeting with their mobile being a primary example of what I meant with that term). Of course, I meant that some of them are not good and may be considered paid lackeys for their lack of professional expectancy. They're not all bad, or useless, or whatever. Then someone (I looked at her page and she is over 60) and works in that field, then said I was not taking responsibility for what occurred, began being snippy and then derailing my thread by saying I was naming people in my videos, and using poor spelling. I'd basically been spewing in some video about what they said, but it was only about the comments and nobody was named, and I used the "F" word a total of once. Then she was getting kind of arrogant, and the topic got locked, which was annoying. And I don't even think she has been a member for that many months, but somehow has garnered hundreds of posts in such a short period of time. Not that it matters. But I was like, "God, even I cannot do that on any forum in 16 years."

I don't get that. I've also seen some trolls target a guy I like on the Internet. All he actually does is put up opinions videos about how a company is ruining a video game franchise a lot of people love, and this was just this guy's very own thoughts that he wasn't forcing on anyone. And yet, so many people were calling him toxic to the community, so I've been defending people like him who do the right thing by acknowledging the company's money making tactics. But it changes nothing, because trolls aren't people you can reason with.
Thanks for this!
